Shadow Dances
Her shadow dances like a whisper of reality,
as she stands beneath the light.
cold hands
like steel
tearing down the walls
so none can perceive the hopes and dreams.
lost soul
so afraid,
Inside terror burns
now alone, cries inaudible screams
those dreams
of fame
stolen
all away.
All those lies, promises in the night
alone
she weeps
pain is all she feels
now she lives with no will left to fight.
Still, her shadow dances like a whisper of reality
as she stands beneath the light.
